Oswego Children's Photography | Angelina is 2!!

My sweet baby girl turned two in October, (yes, i'm way late on posting these). I decided to switch things up a bit, instead of doing a traditional shoot.  I love how these turned out!

Bella & Alex | Children's photography | Montgomery, IL

March is one of my favorite months.  Not only is it my husbands birthday, but two out of my three kids are also March babies.  That means lots of parties and of course, lots of birthday photos!

Isabella turned 8 this year, and Alex 3.  Here are some of my favorites from their birthday sessions!

This has to be one of my favorite photos of him.  <3

I had so much fun taking these photos of Bella.  My friend Alison, from Runs with Ruffles made her dress and headband.  Isn't it adorable?

Children's Photographer Montgomery, IL | Alex's Airplane Session

I have been looking forward to doing a session like this since the day I found out I was having a boy.  A couple of years ago, I got my husband flight lessons for his birthday and when we showed up I knew it was the perfect place to have a session for my little boy. I mean,  how cool is this vintage T-6 Texan?

When we arrived for the session Alex's eyes lit up with excitement.  The last time he was on a plane was a year ago, and he was too young to remember.

I just love the way these turned out.  I can't wait to order some prints for his airplane themed room!

Enjoy!

An airplane in the hangar across from us actually took off mid session. He was mesmerized.

I FINALLY HAVE A BLOG!

YEP! I finally caved.  I had been putting it off for so long because, quite frankly, I didn't think I could keep up with the work entailed with updating a blog.  As some of you may know, I'm a wife and mom of three (technically four if you include the fur baby), so it can get a little crazy around here.  But I feel that becoming a mom of three has boosted my productivity and time management, believe it or not.  That, and the fact that I've been home a lot hiding from this extremely cold weather. ;) So with that said... what a better way to kick off my new blog than to introduce you to the newest member of my family.  Angelina was born on October 18, 2013.  Not only was this day special because its the day she arrived, but because its my grandmother's birthday. How cool is that?? Same birthday, 91 years apart.  I can't wait for Grandma to visit so I can get pictures of them together.
